Drysuit/tyre repair kit

[Steve Gray]

My old DUI trilam suit has served me well over the years but Ive somehow managed to get a small hole in the upper leg

Its only small. so I was thinking I might glue on one of those small bycycle innertube seals with some aquasure

Will this work ? or can someone sugest a better way.

Yep should work a treat. Get some Cotol 240 unless you want to wait 24 hours for the Aquasure to dry.

Thanks. Is the cotol a stronger glue than aquasure ?

No, it's an accelerator and pre-cleaner that you mix with the Aquasure to reduce the cure time to 2 hours. It's not expensive and well worth it as you use it to clean the area to make the Aquasure stick, too.

Can you buy the pockets separately ? Who , how much ?

[Woz]

You can get velcro cargo pockets and braces from Divers Whorehouse. The glue that comes with the kits is rubbish- don't use it.

Any Aquasure stockist should stock Cotol. If you can't find any, I can get a batch in.
